Baah to AMD's Barcelona

A REPORT said Intel has brought forward its plans for its quad core Tigerton Xeon MP to next week, as a spoiler in its battle for server market share with AMD.

News.com said it will show off its Tigerton chips a week today with the formal launch a week tomorrow.

The server market is one of the most lucrative for the X86 chip makers and there's no doubt Intel wants to stem advances AMD Intel-and-amd-are-joined-at-the-hip has made in that space. AMD has not helped itself by delays with its Barcelona processor which have caused much shaking of heads and gnashing of teeth in the financial analyst community.

Tigerton is just the first of a whole spate of announcements Intel will make this autumn - it plans to release its 45 nanometre Penryn chips probably in November. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
